Chapter 1: Q20DQ (page 356)

If a metal wire has its length doubled and its diameter tripled, by what factor does its Young's modulus change?

Short Answer

Expert verified

Thus, Young's Modulus of the wire remains unchanged.

Step by step solution

01

Young's Modulus

The Young's Modulus is a physical property of any material mostly elastic in nature that determines the ease of deformation of that material with respect to stress and strain applied to it.

02

Young's Modulus

Given, that a wire is transformed by doubled by its length and tripled by its diameter.

Since Young's modulus is a property independent of the dimensions of the medium or material, therefore, the change in the dimension would not affect the Young's Modulus of the wire.

Hence, this is the required answer.
